But wait. According to the article:

Cindy Nelson, who has lived across the street from the imprint for over 20 years, told the Chicago Sun-Times, “I don’t want to burst anyone’s bubble or upset anybody, but it’s a squirrel."

Nelson told NBC Chicago a tree used to be located near the spot where the imprint is located.

"So there was a huge tree there originally and the people that lived here when the tree was here, you know, we kind of all just believe that it fell out of the tree," she said. "And then I just personally believe it was the squirrel that fell out of the tree. I don't know if a rat can run up a tree or a raccoon."

It's not a rat, but a squirrel, at least according to someone who has lived there for over 20 years.
